Australian producer Nick Murphy (formerly Chet Faker) just dropped an EP under his birth name after retiring his alter-ego last year.
The five-song Missing Link EP came out today (May 9) and features the Kayranada-produced “Your Time”.
Via Exclaim!, “Chet Faker was me trying to prove something to myself,” said Murphy about dropping his old moniker. “But my tastes are pretty dynamic and I realized I’ve spent time resisting that. Now I want to put everything in. It’s not conceptual anymore. It’s just me, and it made sense to show that in a name. It feels like a rediscovery.”
